That just linked back to this (pictureless) thread - although it originally said it was going to Photobucket. Weird. ---

[Try #2](http://s862.photobucket.com/albums/ab183/spike1380/Doggies/?action=view¤t=DSCN1207.jpg) Hmm. Strange. This one seems to work. The whole album is doggies. ---

And legs. Do you begin to understand my pain? Technically, it’s my parent’s house and their dog, but she loves me best. But any time I come over… I am going to get an excited and loving shot to the crotch. Note the dog is lying _diagonally_. ---

[Simone](http://www.flickr.com/photos/pinfeatherphotos/412885873/) has run headfirst into…well, _my_ head before and she also recently gave my wife a shiner popping up and smacking that hard little pit bull skull right into _her_ eye. She _loooooooves_ us and doesn’t understand why we’re making the funny noises and rocking. One of my dog sites has a huge thread running for hundreds of posts on the topic “Accidental injuries I have sustained from my dog(s).” ---

Dogs are goofy. I used to have a rather large-ish golden retriever/chow mix. I called her a “chow retriever” because that’s what she was good at. More than once she would rear up and hit me under the chin with her forehead, causing me to bite my upper lip and bring blood. ---

> [@Surly\_Chick](#): > > Squeeeeeeee! The puppies are so cute! I’m sure they didn’t mean to kick you in the eye… Aww! Thanks! I think so too. I’m sure they didn’t mean it. Luckily there doesn’t seem to be any damage because I spent most of the day crying and a damaged eye could have made that hurt a lot. ---

That’s almost as bad as the time I had a baby punch me in the eye. Ever get beat up by a baby? 🙂 ---

When we had greyhounds, we used to nap with them on the floor in a big pile of dog beds, pillows, and blankets. Greyhounds tend to run in their sleep. You can see where this is going, right? One day I was sleeping with my back to Indy the greyhound when he started running in his sleep. Faster and faster he ran, until WHAM! He kicked me hard right in the middle of the spine. In my sleep I thought I had been shot in the back. Upon waking, no, it was just a 45 mph foot to the spine. ---

My dog likes to lean on me and step on me. But when I get too close to him, he will put his paw on me and push me (or rather, himself, as he is lighter) away. ---
